The surname McElligott has its origins in Ireland, specifically in County Kerry. It is derived from the Gaelic name Mac Giolla Chiotáin, which means son of the servant of St. Ciarán. The name Ciarán itself is derived from the Gaelic word ciar, meaning dark or black, possibly referring to someone with dark features or a dark complexion.

The McElligott family is believed to have been part of the ancient Uí Liatháin kingdom in County Cork before migrating to County Kerry. The name can be traced back to the medieval period when surnames began to be adopted in Ireland. Like many Irish surnames, McElligott often went through various anglicizations and spellings over the years, including variations such as McElligot, McElligut, MacElligott, and others.

The McElligott family, like many Irish families, faced significant hardships during various periods of Irish history, including the Great Famine of the mid-19th century and the struggle for independence. As a result, many members of the clan emigrated to other parts of the world, particularly the United States, Canada, and Australia, in search of better opportunities and a new beginning.

Today, the surname McElligott is still found primarily in Ireland, especially in Kerry and Cork, as well as in countries with a significant Irish diaspora. Many members of the McElligott family continue to cherish their Irish heritage and maintain strong connections to their ancestral roots.
